$69,000 for a Golf R! Bwaaahaaaaahaaaa! Who is that guy kidding?
They eventually went down to the rrp price but said the my16 prices had gone up.Quote:

Maybe I'd sell the GTI in a few years and get the mk8 R or hopefully by that time tesla will have the model 3 which should have mind boggling acceleration.
When I called to confirm my GTI PP was MY16, the dealer tried spinning me some sh*t about the prices going up because of the new features. I didn't say anything while he "looked it up on his computer". I obviously knew about all the pricing structure changes but I let him talk just because I was interested in seeing what he'd try and pull. He actually tried to tell me that the price of my car had changed after I had already ordered it. As in he implied I'd have to pay more now! I just said "sorry mate, its a lease. The price is locked in" and just let him be.
Point is (I suppose), do your research first. Many of us around here seem to do that well :)
When I bought my R 10 months ago. I paid 60500 for all options driveaway. Now with std leather, and if i was in the market, I'd be aiming for $ 58000Quote:

You must have run a hard bargain when you got yours, best price I've heard! Was that in NSW? or one of the cheaper states?Quote:

Wow for 60500 I would snap it up straight away! But not one dealer so far is willing to budge below 63kQuote:
